    Is it saying we won’t be able to pretend democracy is at stake?
    Or we won’t be able to pretend the US is a democracy?
    Or we won’t be able to pretend the US, is a democracy at stake?

    Oh! Is it the spaceing that hanging me up? I’m seeing “U.S. A Democracy”. Should it be U.S.A. Democracy?

      Pretty clear that it’s “Biden warns Americans that their ability to even pretend that the US is a democracy is at stake” As in, the US is not a democracy, but we pretend it is, but Biden is warning us that our ability to do so is at stake, because it’s going to get so much worse that we won’t even be able to bury our heads in the sand anymore.

        That makes sense.
        However it was recently pointed out to me that when you have to explain how obvious (or clear) something is, it really isn’t.
